Thanks for the replies, it was as I suspected :)

In my particular case, we are producing PDFs which contain charts that are drawn using SVG which I embed in the XSL:FO. The client now wants a 'chart pack' which would be a zip file containing only the images in a rasterized format so that they can be imported into other documents etc. Given that I already have RenderX in the workflow it would be a simple matter if it could output images. But I agree it's not really the right tool for the job.

I've found a product called Inkscape which is an SVG editor and it has a command line utility to rasterize SVG. So I guess I will use that. It's part of a server process so I have to shell out to run it, which I'm not a fan of doing but looks like I have no choice.

Cheers.
